AN: Hey guys, TwistedTelepath and I are back with a new chapter! Unlike CMA we'll actually be able to update this story faster! Hahaha.
Still don't own My Babysitter's A Vampire, neither does TwistedTelepath. And she owns Kami, and I own Taylor :)
-Kami's POV-
"Going to the beach," I sang, throwing a ball up in the air and catching it. "You think I should blast my playlist? I got California Gurls, Starships, Blow-"
"You're not playing that at the beach." Taylor said, brushing her hair in the mirror. "I'm making sure you're by my side the whole time. It's not turning into that beach party we went to last summer."
"Carla deserved it!" I said, turning toward her.
"Sure, she deserved that sand up her nose."
"Of course! Who else was gonna yank out her extensions?"
Taylor shook her head and put her bag over her shoulder and twirled around in her sundress. "How do I look?"
"Good enough that Rory can eat you," I gushed. "Do you like him? Can I help hook you guys up? Ooh, how about-"
"No." She said, shaking her head. "I don't like Rory, and you're not hooking me up."
I pouted. "Dammit! You think Benny will like my bikini?"
"It sure shows a lot." She commented, looking at me.
"Does not. You're thinking like my mom." I said, picking up my beach bag. "Can we get sandwiches along the way?"
"You're going to overeat and throw up." She warned.
I shrugged. "I'm hungry. What am I supposed to do?"
"Keep your appetite concealed." She helped me up. "I want you make a good first impression."
"Second impression."
"Try not to disturb anyone."
"Which I always do."
"Keep to yourself."
"Will not."
"Don't be childish and so wild."
"Dude, quit trying to change me." I said, walking out our room. I jogged down the stairs and went in the kitchen to make a sandwich. I don't care what Taylor says, I'm Kami. The awesomest girl alive... next to Katniss Everdeen. She kicks ass.
Skylar was sitting in the living room, watching Oprah. They still play Oprah on TV?
"Eating again, Kami?" She asked.
"My stomach is a black hole," I said, opening the fridge. "Where's the mayo?"
"Keep looking."
"Kami!" Taylor called. "It's time to go!"
I moaned and took the sandwich I didn't finish yesterday. I squirted ketchup on it and bit into it, skipping out of the kitchen. Taylor crossed her arms and waited for me, giving me an intense stare with her big but beady blue eyes.
"Kamille." She said softly. "We need to go."
I swallowed my bite and nodded. "Just don't call me Kamille ever again, Summers. You driving?"
"Why would I let you crash my aunt's car?"
"You clean up nice, Stripes." I remarked as I sat myself down on my blanket that I laid out on the sand. "Killing those trunks, if I do say so myself."
"Kami." Taylor said, sitting next to me. "Please don't. I know where this conversation is going."
"What? I wasn't gonna talk about his ass... yet." I whispered.
She sighed and busted out a fashion magazine. Yawn. I got up and took off my little shall-like jacket. "Come swimming with me?" I asked Benny.
"Aw." Rory said, frowning. "I want to swim. Even though the sun's really bright. And I might have burned. But still. Swimming is fun."
I held his chin and used my fingers to bring his frown up to a smile. "Don't fret, my pet vampire. You have Miss Taylor-Anne to keep you company. And wherever Ethan went."
Taylor covered her head with her magazine as Rory plopped down next to her. I grinned, pleased with my actions and took off my sneakers.
"I'll race 'ya." Benny said, doing the same.
"Oh no you won't!" I said, throwing my sunglasses to the side and making a run for it.
He followed close behind and ran past me. I stopped as I watched him go further in the water.
Man, was it just me, or was he hot in the ocean?
I held my breath and jumped in. I swam next to him and popped right up, shaking out my hair. I laughed as he shook his head, his hair dripping water over me.
"Stupid." I said, splashing him with water.
He looked at me up and down. "What did you just do?" He asked.
"I did this." I splashed water in his face.
"It's on!" He said, throwing a heap of water in my face. He laughed and did it again.
I screamed as we continued to splash each other. He lifted me up and practically wore me like a towel around his neck and spun around. I pounded on his back.
"Let me down, you animal!" I ordered, giggling.
"Sure thing." He said. He dropped me in the water, laughing.
I swam up quickly and wrapped my arm around his neck. I pushed his head into the water.
"I win." I said, smiling.
He raised his head back up and pushed me off him as he swam his way back to shore. I swam after him and jumped on him, covering his mouth.
"I got you." I flirted. "You ain't going no wheres."
He bit my finger and pushed my off of him again. By the time I came back up, he was near the sand again. I ran after him, or at least I tried to. Why is water so hard to run through?
When I reached Benny, I pushed him. He fell to the ground on his back and laughed. He grabbed my hand and pulled me down with him. I laid on my back, shielding my eyes from the sun. I folded my hands on my chest and faced him.
"You're alright, Stripes." I said, smiling. "Not boring at all."
"Whoever said I was boring?" He asked, grinning.
"Me."
"Then you're boring."
"Me? Ask Taylor, I'm exciting! Like hot sauce. You're the boring one."
"You're wrong again, ask Ethan."
I laughed and flipped over to my side. "You wanna go get a sandwich? It feels like I haven't eaten for days."
"You're speaking my language."
-Taylor's POV-
After Kami ditched me to play with her new boy-toy, I got stuck with the little blonde blood-sucking puppy boy. "I wish I could go into the water. I'd burn to a crisp if I did, though."
"Oh, that's terrible." I commented blankly, flipping through my magazine. Ooh. Polka dots are back!
"I guess it's not that bad. I mean, you're here with me! I get to hang with a pretty lady." Rory went on and smiled at me.
Why did Kami drag me into this?
"Thank you." I replied politely, albeit awkwardly.
"'Cause like, you're hot. Way hot! Hot enough that I'd like to-"
"You know what?" I cut him off and stood "I think I'm going to tan."
"In the sun?" Rory whined.
I nodded "In the sun." I shrugged off my white cover-up, revealing my white with a floral design bikini, and neatly folded it, setting it down where I was just sitting. I grabbed my towel and started walking away when Rory spoke up.
"But if you go, I'll be lonely..." He said sadly.
Dammi-I mean, gosh, why did he have to sound so upset? My brain was screaming at me to keep walking, but my heart, on the other hand...
I sighed and shook my head, turning back around. I ignored Rory's wide smile and laid out my towel in a spot of sunshine right next to him. "Better light over here." I said quietly.
"I knew you couldn't resist the Rorster!" He laughed "By the way, you should show some skin more often. Rory likey." He waggled his eyebrows.
Ugh. I'm already starting to regret this.
-Kami's POV-
I swear over my grandmother's grave that I'm actually acting like Taylor. Caring about what boys think of me. Not my usual "Go with the flow" attitude. Like, flirt with 'em, get their number, and never call them again. For some reason, Benny was different. It's weird... he's weird.
I mean, now I'm checking how my hair looks and if there's stuff on my face or if I have enough lip gloss and stuff. See, I'm a chick that grew up with an uptight mom, a laid-back dad and weird brothers, older and younger, so, I'm not into that sort of stuff that Taylor's into, 'cuz I spend most of my time with my dad, because he and Mum are divorced. It feels strange... very strange. I don't-
"So... I haven't seen you around town," Benny said, interrupting my thoughts. "Where are you from?"
"Wales." I said, shrugging and eyeing my hot dog. I wanted to eat it, but some part of my brain was saying 'No, no! Don't eat it!'. But I'm hungry, dammit!
"Whales?" he asked, squinting and jerking his head forward. "Like... under the sea?"
I snorted and shook my head. "No, dummy. England."
"Ah, I get it." He grinned. "Where's your cute accent?" he asked, trying to mock British accents.
"I don't use an accent, fool." I said, crossing my arms. "It's too typical."
"Typical?"
"Okay, maybe just a little abnormal. I just don't like how I sound!"
"I bet your British accent is adorable."
I shook my head and stared at my food, my stomach rumbling as I did so. Benny looked at me, raising an eyebrow and smiling.
"Was that your stomach or a wild grizzly bear?" he asked.
I laughed and shook my head. "My stomach, sorry. I just... um."
"Dude, just eat it."
"Are you sure?" I asked, raising my shoulders and letting them fall down. "I'm... not the neatest eater."
He chuckled. "Who is?"
"Taylor," I said, putting my phone beside me and giving a side frown.
"You look like you're suffering, just go ahead, I don't care."
I smiled. "Really?"
"Shut up and eat, Kamille!"
I gave him a threatening stare as I bit into my hot dog. Oh yes. Mama's home. Is it just me, or does the meat taste way better? It's just amazing. I nearly got carried away and shoved the whole thing inside my mouth. I licked my lips and smiled.
"Do I look bad?" I asked. Wow, totally sound like Taylor.
"No, but you're rocking that ketchup and mustard mustache and beard." Benny said, laughing.
I gave a little shriek and wiped my mouth with a nearby napkin. "Better?"
"Yes. Better." he said, winking. "So, I see you're a food-lover like me."
"Major." I answered rather proudly. "I eat, I make my own creations and I snack frequently."
"Hmm, interesting. Not the usual answer a girl would say."
"Are you calling me a dude?" I asked, laying back.
"No, du-, I mean girl. Okay, I've got no accent, hates being called Kamille, food junkie. What else?"
"You'll have to find out." I teased. "How about we finish up here, then just mess around the beach?"
-Taylor's POV-
The sun was setting, casting an orange glow across the sand and the water. Most of the beach goers had already left, leaving the area sparse. I was in the water, lukewarm from the sun, just floating along and watching the sunset.
Gosh, the sky sure looked pretty.
"Boo!"
I shrieked, waving my arms wildly through the water to push myself up. I heard laughter behind me and turned, seeing Rory laughing his head off in the water. My cheeks burned "Rory! What are you doing?!"
"Haha, I got you! I scared you so bad!" He laughed, wearing a cheesy grin.
"Rory that wasn't funny! You really scared me!" I don't know why, but frustrated tears began to pool in my eyes.
His blue eyes got wide when he saw my watering eyes. I made my way to shore and he followed me. "Taylor, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you that bad. Taylor, please, I didn't mean it. Taylor!" He grabbed my arm and turned me to face him, taking hold of my other arm. "Hey, Tay, I'm sorry."
I looked up into his eyes, feeling angry and humiliated and upset all at the same time. "Rory, I..." I wanted to tell him just how I felt, but somehow I lost my words. I just got lost in his eyes. His blue, blue eyes. Suddenly, his eyes flashed a bright light blue. His eyes widened as they stared into mine "Your eyes..." He murmured, stepping closer to me.
"What about them?" I whispered.
"They... flashed..." He trailed off and angled his head down, moving closer and slowly closing his eyes. I mimicked him, moving up on my toes.
Wait a second.
Am I about to kiss Rory?
I opened my eyes wide, barely inches away from Rory. "Ah-uh-no!" I pushed him away and stared, breathing hard. He stumbled away, staring back at me. "I-I'm sorry." I frowned apologetically and bolted the other way.
"Tay? Where ya going?" Kami called to me as I ran past her and Benny lounging together on a towel.
I didn't answer her and kept running until I reached one of the changing tents. I ran into an empty tent and crouched in the corner. "Oh my god. That did not just happen. I did not almost kiss someone I wasn't dating. I did not almost kiss Rory!"
"Tay? Tay, where are you? Oops, sorry lady, looking for my emotionally damaged friend. Tay?" Kami pulled back my tent flap and peered in "Oh, there you are Tay. What happened? Are you okay?"
"Kamille, I almost kissed Rory."
"WHAT?! Okay, I'm going to completely bypass the fact that you used the forbidden name and demand details. Tell me everything!" She rushed in and sat down next to me.
"I don't know, we were just standing there, staring at each other when his eyes flashed like, a frosty blue or something, and he said something about my eyes and the next thing I know I was this close to his face!" I held up my fingers, making them inches apart, for emphasis.
"Tay, this is good news! You'll finally have a boyfriend! We could go on double dates and compare the way our boyfriends make out with us-"
"Kami! This is not okay! He's not boyfriend, and he shouldn't be my boyfriend! This is Rory we're talking about here!"
"I know he is a little - okay a lot - weird, but he's cute! And he's a vampire so I bet he's great in bed." She smiled and winked.
I scoffed and rolled my eyes "Is that all you ever think about?"
Kami smirked and stood "damn right it is!" She held out her hand to me.
I grabbed it and helped pull myself up "How unladylike." I grumbled.
She shrugged "Ladylike shmadylike. You left that poor boy hanging."
"What am I supposed to do now? Pretend it didn't happen?" I asked.
-Kami's POV-
"We're home!" I announced as we came into Skylar's house. Taylor shut the door and I laid on the couch. I put my hands behind my head and lifted my sunglasses. Today was amazingly and phenomenally epic. Much more than words can put it. And I had a sweet and sexy view of Benny in the water, if you get what I mean.
"What did you do in those two hours you shared with your new buddy?" Taylor asked me, sitting across from me.
"What didn't we do?" I replied, smiling at the thought. "We swam, we ate, we fooled around on the beach, he rubbed sunscreen on my body-"
"What?!"
"Yeah, dur. What do you expect? Ooh, and I kicked down the pathetic sandcastles of youngsters."
"Of course you did."
I rubbed my hands on my thighs, but jumped when I felt my palms shock me. And the funny thing was that I was far away from a rug in sight and I wasn't wearing socks...
